"Yech, these guys really put an effort in scaring people, don't they?" Hope said aloud as she looked at what appeared to be a head on a stake. Quite gruesome if you ask.

"You got that right," Axel replied, wincing at the sight of the decoration. "Ok, I think we've gone through everything. What can you determine about the town?"

Hope put a finger to her chin, tapping it thoughtfully. "Well, they seem to always be planning every years Halloween….and the townspeople seem to put a lot of effort into making decorations. Oh, and there are a lot of clues that suggest secret passages, like the coffin in the graveyard."

Axel smiled at her conclusion. "Well, I think you summed it up right on the dot. Let's RTC." He opened up a dark portal, and both of them walked through it, leaving the spooky town.

Dear Diary,

Today's mission was in a new world called Halloween Town. Because everyone there celebrates Halloween there all the time, me and Axel had these cool new outfits and appearances! I was a cat! Yeah, a cat! Anyways, the mission was just recon stuff, so not a whole lot of interesting details to tell. Well, I'm sleepy, so I think I'll hit the hay. Night.

Several Days later-

I yawned as I walked into the Grey Area to get my mission for the day from Saix. The only one in the room was Saix, which was surprisingly odd.

"Hope, today you will be training with Larxene. Go to the training room at once." Larxene was the only one I hadn't met yet, so I guess that it would be a good time to get to know her.

When I walked into the training room, I was immediately met with the sound of a loud sigh. "Ugh, you just love taking your time, huh?" Well, someone is a bit of a snob.

"Uh, you must be Larxene. I'm Hope." I gave her a small smile, but she only rolled her eyes.

"Yeah, I don't care. I don't even know why they picked me to do this. Do you know how to use magic?" I nodded my head.

"I know how to use it really well."

She frowned. "Hmph, prove it then! Use magic to attack me then!" Attack her? If I did, I'd probably kill her! But, since she had asked, I did it anyway, and used a blizzaga spell on her, throwing her into a wall. Slowly she stood up, with a small smirk on her face. "Not bad. I think we're going to get along just fine."

For a few hours, we went back and forth, fighting with magic, until Larxene was on the ground, panting in exhaustion, "Trainings over. You can leave now."

A month later-

Xemnas sat in his chair, deep in thought. His plan to use Hope for Kingdom Hearts was already in action, but he was beginning to doubt that she would be real helpful. Like she had said, she couldn't help him obtain what he needed. And she was right, she wasn't, but he had this theory in mind that was quite possible. Maybe, she was able to create hearts for those who had none. When she didn't lose her heart in the destruction of Radiant Garden, it striked him as odd. Why hadn't the Heartless exactly fooled with her? It was as if she was able to repel them, but how? When Ansem the Wise had spoke of how pure her heart was, he had became interested in how she was able to maintain that pureness. When she had become sad and depressed, her heart still remained pure. It was as if…she couldn't be tainted by darkness.

And no matter what, he would find out how she was able to keep her heart so pure.

Elsewhere-

The battle raged on, until he got a hold of the Keyblade that opened peoples hearts, and stabbed it through his own, turning himself into a heartless, so his friend could have her heart back. When he turned into a heartless, something, well, someone was created. Lost and confused about where he was and how he got there, he stayed there, in the dark.

He was the boy's nobody.


"Darkness is nearer and nearer…it will continue to get closer, until it consumes everything in its pathway." What do you mean?

"Kingdom Hearts is not what you think it is…you mustn't let them open the door…you mustn't." What? Why not?

"The only way they can get hearts, is if they have someone close to them help them remember what emotions felt like. You, are the key to their missing hearts…"

I opened my eyes, sitting up in my bed. What did the voice mean about me being…the key? Key to what?

"How can I be the key…to something I don't know anything about?" I asked myself aloud, before getting up and getting ready for the day.

"You are the Key to their destinies…you are the key to helping them remember…and so is the Keyblade he wields."
